If your selection is out of stock, We recommend contacting the shop directly to see if the item is currently available. If ordered, you will be notified promptly and offered the option to wait for restock or choose an alternative.

The Violette from Virtisse is crafted on a new original last, designed for flexibility, comfort, and support. Its anatomical shape provides excellent support in the metatarsal area while allowing a seamless roll through.

Features
  • Box Shape: Slightly tapered with a low profile for natural alignment
  • Platform: Medium, for stability and balance
  • Vamp: U-shaped, medium length for a flattering fit
  • Shanks:
    • Soft (S) – beginner-friendly
    • Medium (M) – ¾-length, more flexible
    • Hard (H) – full-length, for strong dancers
      (Soft shanks available initially)
  • Widths: X–XXXXX for precise fitting
  • Drawstring: Elastic for easy adjustment
  • Ready-to-Wear: New inner construction allows excellent flexibility and smooth roll-through

The Violette is ideal for dancers seeking a supportive, flexible pointe shoe that adapts beautifully to different levels of experience and foot shapes. 

This shoe is commonly required for ballet students in structured training, for dance school uniform and progression.
